Abstract

A method of making an inflatable device (10) suitable for implantation in a mammal is disclosed. The method includes the steps of providing a mesh, positioning the mesh on a curved molding surface, applying an elastomeric material to the molding surface with the mesh positioned thereon, allowing the elastomeric material to set to form a flexible shell (22) having an open end, with the mesh being embedded in the set elastomer. Furthermore, an interior shell (24) is provided, with a gel layer (26) between the interior shell and the elastomeric shell. A puncture resistant member (50) is then sealed to the open end of the flexible shell to form the inflatable prosthesis. The anterior of the inflatable portion is self sealing, such that the inflatable device may be inflated by direct injection of saline into the inflatable device, without requiring a valve or the like.
